nah... after 500km u can do anything if you wan... but 120~140 does not means ur engine work very hard... maintain it lower than 3.5k ~ 4k RPM i think that is ok... got for the service and get mineral 1st lo... then after 5k use the full syn... if not 10k also can... coz their so call major maintenance comes every 20k... 20k, 60k for duno what service already, 40k for another 1 then 80k is the most expensive...  prepare to fork RM1k for that not including air-cond and wheel services... *check wheels balancing and alignment outside better coz they also sub it out as they do not have any machines and man power in the SC...

Back from my CNY holidays, and a happy cny to all here  Drove my car outstation to Ipoh n some long distance places, and for 2 tanks, my FC accumulated at 14.6km/l at 1st tank and on my most recent tank, 15.6km/l! All is pumped using Esso Ron 97 fuel  That also not necessary by driving with light foot.

My relatives from Ipoh, but i not from Ipoh. By the time from KL to Ipoh i used up 3 bars of fuel. Still okay considered the slightly higher traffic on highways and with 4 relatives on my car.

You mean the clutch or the throttle? The clutch should be hydraulic, throttle is dbw.
Added on February 19, 2010, 2:12 pmAnother thing guys (just ask around), two questions:
- while in D and car stationary, do you have any noise like grrrrrrr....?
- after reverse, car stopped, quick shift to D, accelerate hastily... got a jerk and a sound 'dom'. if i do it a little slower, quiet & smooth. Do you have any similar encounter?
